Try to connect ur phone without battery, same as when we will unlock with test point method. Just to make sure that ur phone not dead
I think sony phone or maybe all phone wont connect in flash mode when it has no battery. I always have this issue on my K810. But on K810 there is a combination button that will make my phone force turn on.

How to unBrick Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray
When you already do unlock bootloader and Flashing Official Stock Firmware a notification from update center will come to you and
says that a new firmware update is ready. Just ignore it.
BUT if you already confirm to update, well, probably your sony ericsson xperia ray will have a long sleep. And this what you can do to save the SE.
Preparation
-----------
Flashtool application
Xperia 2011 Range_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf File (file attached below)
unbrick sony ericsson xperia ray
--------------------------------
plug your microUSB cable date to X-Ray (not to PC, not yet).
Put Xperia 2011 Range_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf file to folder firmwares (you can find this folder in FlashTool).
Run X10FlashTool.exe
Click “Flash” button and then choose Xperia 2011 Range_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf file.
Wait for FlashTool command, press and hold volume[-].
When command from FlashTool appear, connect the USB cable to PC (remember! in condition volume[-] is press and hold).
A green light at home button will turn on when FlashToll detect the sony ericsson Xperia Ray. now you can release the volume button.
Sit back and wait until the process is done
When all process is complete, try to turn on your sony ericsson Xperia Ray. It should be fine now.
It worked for me!

Hello comrades,
I have xperia x10 mini pro. I rooted phone with Flashtool and installed CWM. I tried to boot it in flash mode (turned off phone, back button held and plugged in USB into the phone), but what I get is that my phone turned on always, like that I pressed Power button.
Earlier I couldn't boot it into the flash mode and I got that I charging battery, but after I installed CWM, phone always turns on.
Due to, I can't re-flash it because it always turns on. I tried with flashtool, PC companion, SEUS but all software need that I turn off phone and then hold back button and plug in usb and what I get is turned on phone. Please help me how to fix this problem.
I would like to re-flash it to stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 (2.1-update1).
Phone turns on even if I just plug in usb to phone (one end is in the PC and when I plug in other end into the phone, phone turns on). What is wrong guys?

Happened to me b4 if u want to repair with pc comp just remove the battery till u reach connection step then quickly connect battery and cable (nvm the cover) and hold back button when connecting if u do fast enough will work

Leave your phone plugged in and press POWER-HOME and BACK all together, as soon as the screen turns completelly black (backlight off too) releast POWER and HOME, and leave the back-button pressed, that will probably work too.

Can you explain me a little more detailed, i didn't get you very well. I am noob
How do you mean until I reach connection step, where should I reach connection step?
You take out the battery, then you go into PC Companion and follow the steps to repair your phone, until it asks to connect your phone in flash-mode.
Then do as he said (put the battery in etc.)

What do you think, what will happened if I wipe it using CWM? Can I brick it on that way?
If you mean formatting your phone, so you don't have a system on there anymore... that probably will give you a brick. Flashmode is a hardware feature, implemented to install firmware and enable reparations to your phone's software.
Deleting everything you can will not magically solve your problem, as far as i know.
It might help if you get mad at the phone and abuse the back-button by repeatedly pressing it when connecting the phone.

Does this mean that I have hardware problem. Phone works without any problem.
Somehow it doesn't detect you pressing the back-button, maybe there is some dust or dirt inbetween the contacts or something, since you flashed sucessfully before i don't think it's a serious hardware-problem.

I didn't flashed it before, I couldn't do that. I couldn't unlock bootloader, because I couldn't boot it in flash mode (phone just show that battery charging), after installing CWM now phone even don't show that battery is charging (it turns on when I plug in USB in the phone without holding any button). This is nightmare!
You are still on the original firmware then?
I mean, your phone still works?
SmG67 said:

Yes, I am on original firmware and phone still works, but I have problem to boot it in flash mode. When I plug in USB cable in the phone it turns on, like that I pressed POWER button. I don't press any button, but when I plug in usb cable 10-20 seconds and phone is on.
Yes, because your phone detects the usb-cable getting plugged in, even when it's off, it thinks you want to charge it, so (normally) it loads the kernel in order to start the charging-process, that is normal behaviour. I have been on a kernel that didn't support that feature, and it booted into the full rom before it started charging.
In short: the usb-port also functions as a power-button, sort off
Does the back-button work normally when you're on the firmware? (Like, open the app-drawer, pressing back-button should close it?)

Yes, the back button works perfect, closing apps (not close apps, but back to the phones "desktop"), back to previous pages in browser...
I am concerned because, before I installed CWM , when it was OFF and plugged in on USB, phone just showed black screen and when I clicked on some button I could see that battery is charging, that was all. Now, when I plug in USB it turns on like I pressed POWER button.
And off course never booted in flash mode because it turns on

What is app-drawer, I don't know what is that.
oh, that's the bit where you find all your installed apps, the grid you see when you press on the little triangle on the bottom of your desktop, or swipe up on the desktop.
I honestly don't know why your phone won't go into flash-mode though. Maybe try to take out your battery for about 10 minutes so your phone gets rid of all charge and static, and then try again.

I solved problem about POWER-ing on when I plug in USB. I installed new ROM "MiniCM7Pro_V21_Paul_XXX" via CWM because I didn't need to boot it in flash mode and now when I plug in USB I got that it charging battery and orange led diode.
But I can't boot it in flash mode even with new ROM, all the time orange led diode when I hold back button and plug in USB. I wiped out all date except something about "battery" from Advanced CWM options.

Hi,
I have the SE X10i, one day i tried to power it on and it showed the 3 flash red light, so i charge the battery and then tried to power on the phone.
The phone vibrate once and nothing going up, the screen stay black, no light at the keys.
I tried to install new rom via SERUS, it fails.
tried install via flashtool and it stuck on flashing loader.
As i understand from the flashtool the phone can get into flashmode.(back key and insert the usb cable).
Any help please how to wake up this phone alive.
Thanks.

When software asks you to press back, hold back while putting battery back in, should go straight to flash mode and flash

OK, my friend gave me this phone because he couldnt repair it. The problem is the phone wont start up, when I plug the charger it shows the sony ericsson logo and the battery level for 1 second (the battery percentage is 0%) and it stucks in a bootloop untill disconnect the device from the charger. I havent tried flashing it with PC Companion or Flashtool because the batterylevel is 0. Also I cant find the battery in this phone. Should I flash the phone and charge it ? Thanks in advance. Just tried to identify with Flashtool it doesnt give any info, even the windows wont detect the phone

When it shows the battery level you can push the power button to let it boot into the ROM. You could try that, but i think the battery is well en truly dead by the sound of it. It is possible to replace it and there is a tutorial in the Accessories section of this forum, but it isn't for the fainthearted.
It's the one design decision SE made with the x10mini that is a royal pain in the you know what... with the x10mini pro you can just pull it out like you would do with any other phone, but in the x10mini it's encapsulated completely which makes it difficult.
It hardly shows the battery level for one second, when I push the power button there it vibrates for a second and it goes as it was, stuck in bootloop.

No harm in flashing it with SEUS or PC Companion then It's not going to make it any worse... But i still think your major problem is the battery.
Nope, Flashtool, Omnius and PC Companion wont detect the phone. As I said the phone the windows itself is not detecting the device

You can repair it with PC Companion, it doesn't need to recognise the phone, it just needs flashmode which you can reach by pressing the back-button before inserting the usb-cable.
Ask PC Companion for an update without the phone connected and it will give you a repair option. Follow the instructions from there.
Nope, no sign of life.The phone wont enter flash mode.

When it asks for flashmode, plug in the usb-cable, press home (middle) and power buttons together to create a hard reboot.. as soon as the screen is completely black, press the back-button.
Still the same thing. I even tried to enter flash mode while I am charging the phone, the same result. The phone only has life while its on charger otherwise its dead. Cant power on, any program cant detect the phone. Will try to make video to explain visually

I see... but flashmode occurs before the kernel is starting to load, so it should be available to you...
Well its not. I even tried on different PC. I have Flashtool, Omnius, SUS, PC Companion etc so I have all drivers I need
Dude! Just charge the battery to full level by using other mimmi or use universal battery charger...I also faced the same problem...and got out of it easily...just charge battery and then ur done....

Its really weird n unreasonable.... Try using a new battery, try using your old battery in another neo l... BTW long press volume down button while entering fastboot mode, if that doesn't work try holding the back button... Were you on stock before this happened or did you flash custom stuff?

tank you for your valuable feedback.. i almost done everything i know.. but no scop.. i were using the stock rom itslf..
It's a battery problem, I'm almost sure. For me, after leaving the phone connected all the night the battery started charging again (it was blinking a red led and not turning on).

And no feedback from the screen whatsoever ?? Without being able to enter fast boot mode... I'm afraid you really can't do anything except going to service center.... Is the phone vibrating atleast when you try turning it on ?

Hello guys.This is my problem with Xperia P.I tried to update CWM from 6.0.1.2 to 6.0.3.0 in hope that I will get rid of that status error 7 when trying to install CM 11.Ok so what I did:i downloaded an update for CWM in zip format,i transferred the zip files to my xperia p internal storage then disconnected the phone from pc,then I booted the phone In CWM and from there I tried to update CWM by selectin install from zip sd card the zip archive.It said It was succesfull then asked for reboot and that was.After that the phone gone dead,no response from it even when I tried to power it on or to reset it by key combinations nothing worked.Even when I plugged it on charger nothing or in my pc usb.So when this happened my phone was rooted/unlocked bootloader and running latest JB build 6.1.2.A.100.So what I tried so far:i plugged it in wall charger for 6+ hours in hope I will get a life sign from it and nothing.Then I tried to disconnect its battery,i know its non removable but it has a cord attached that can be detached and I did it for about 5 mins.After that I reconnect the battery and plugged it in.Well I got a solid red led on it and I thought oh well it seems it worked but after exactly 15mins the red led goes out and nothing happens after it.At the moment I am writing this the phone already is dead by 24 hrs+.And yea I tried to connect it in flash mode for flashtool but not a sign at all.My pc doesn't detects it.So is there any hope left for my phone?If so please give more solutions.Oh and another thing it seems that after the red light goes off after 15 mins and I unplug it from charger and reconnect it the red led comes again and the process can be repeated.So should I try this way to charge it until it has enough power to do some responses?

if ur bootloader wasn't unlocked use SUS or sony pc suite to recover ur pc .... nd correct title , this isnt hard brick , i think u flashed a kernel from a different device ... if bootloader was unlocked then flash stock ftf using flashtool.. and flashtool works only in windows 7 and below ... making it work in windows 8 is tedious turn off ur phone and then hold volume down button then connect usb cable if green led lights ,that is flashmode

I am running Windows 7 and the bootloader is unlocked.Also I cant use flashtool or any software from pc because the phone it doesn't get detected.But if I plugged it on pc USB it does give a red light for exactly 14 mins then the red led goes off.Also any key pressing or key combinations doesn't help as I don't get any response from phone.So I am really sure its hard brick.Only sign from it is the red led that goes off after 14 mins.
So anymore ideas?Does my phone was hard resetted after I detached the battery for 5 mins and then reattached it?Because before this I didn't got the red led.And also should I try to recharge my phone by pluggin in it in charger wait 14 mins till red led gets off then repeat this process?

And how I am supposed to turn phone off when I get no sign from it when I am pressing volume or power keys.The only sign I get is the red led that after 14 mins goes off.Yea I flashed/updated a wrong CWM for my phone.And how that could screw my phone that bad I don't have any idea.
Just remove the battery chord from the battery (not the charger chord). This means, your phone is in turn off mode. Then reconnect it. Then try those flashmode combinations.
And for any further status 7 issues refer to my guide. Link is in my signature

when red led isnt lit up and ur phone isnt connected to either charger or pc then it means its off ..... then hold only volume down button (u won't get any response right now) then attach usb cable while holding volume down ... green led will definitely light up and then flash stock ftf

Well I removed the bat cord couple of times then reconnect it and tried flasmode comb but the pc still doesn't detects my phone.Only red led I get that goes off after 14 mins.
Bro, then this may be a hard brick. Try some hardbrick procedures. Or take your device to some local shops. They have a flashing device, which flashes stock firmware. Service centres will cost u very much.

its not hard brick ... in hard brick you don't even get to see the red led ..... this is a basic soft brick because he flashed incompatible kernel which failed bootloader test and hence he is getting this red led .... hard brick = phone becomes paperweight with no led or anything working ....... even charging which does in his case ....... he is just unable to turn on flashmode , (typical case with new users), even i also flashed wrong kernel on my xgo (u cannot even remove battery in that) , i just waited for red led to shut down then holding volume down and then plugging in usb i was able to get flashmode

first remove battery cable for 3-5 mins then reconnect it ...... don't touch the power button ... hold the volume button down.. while holding it down insert usb cable .... (give it 2-6 seconds and DONT LEAVE THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON )the led should now turn on and glow green (flashmode enabled , u shud know the rest i think) don't check if pc detecting or not just check LED green or not first

I don't have anymore warranty left.So I think they will charge me for this.Maybe if I will let the phone more time in charger or with the bat cord detached/unplugged from charger/pc and after that trying again?

if you can try using those "butterfly chargers" , the ones which directly charge battery..... then try this approach cuz flashmode needs 30% battery minimum to run , 75% is recommended
